I wish people read the thread or even posts carefully before responding. I'm well aware that kernel developers are not watching the Redhat BZ, but the maintainers are. Anyway, here's an example of a healthy exchange on BZ: - I reported this bug on Tuesday: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1840432 - There was some discussion - Today it got marked as a duplicate of this bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1840780 - The maintainer had commented on the second bug on Wednesday that he is too busy, and unlikely to find time to investigate - On Thursday another person dug through the upstream repo, found the commit that fixes the issue, determined that simply updating to the latest version from upstream would fix the crash, and as a bonus pointed to the underlying reason that caused the crash. - Earlier today the maintainer did a scratch build of the latest release, and asked for testing - I happened to be online, after testing I responded that the build works - Quite likely there will be a new release next week that pushes out the update. -- Suvayu Open source is the future. It sets us free. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
